Lesson 9 Contents Example 1Probability of Independent Events Example 2Probability of Dependent Events Example 3Probability of Mutually Exclusive Events

Example 9-1a Games In a popular dice game, the highest possible score in a single turn is a roll of five of a kind. After rolling one five of a kind, every other five of a kind you roll earns 100 points. What is the probability of rolling two five of a kinds in a row? The events are independent since each roll of the dice does not affect the outcome of the next roll. There are six ways to roll five of a kind, (1, 1, 1, 1, 1), ( 2, 2, 2, 2, 2 ), and so on, and there are 6 5 or 7776 ways to roll five dice. So, the probability of rolling five of a kind on a toss of the dice isor.
